Autistic Adults/ Adults with Special Needs

The following links are to two Youtube video's. These videos are about adults who have been diagnosed with Autism in Singapore, and their quality of life.

Watching these video's remind me of the issues families of special needs children face here in Saudi Arabia. Having centers and programs for adults who have special needs is also important. After all, those children will grow up to be adults.



Please take a look at the following links:

Teach Special Education......

Within the few years I've been a special education educator, I have realized that more special educators are needed. Especially, here in Saudi Arabia. I have been reading about the shortage of special education teachers here in the kingdom as well as therapists and other occupations that relate to special education. Where are all of the special education teachers???

The Youtube video below points out positive characteristics of special educators in America. The aim is to encourage people to become caregivers for children with special needs. Please watch.....
